You're right that this will need fixing. But we don't really have to fix it any earlier than 3.10 - the launcher is backwards-compatible but not necessarily forwards-compatible. Still, we can take a fix whenever.

Probably it should just change to using CompareStringEx with (at least) the SORT_DIGITSASNUMBERS flag.
